Ice floats on water because
the crystal structure of ice is more regular than that seen inliquid water.
the distance between water molecules in ice is greater than inliquid water.
the cool temperature of ice reduces the extent of molecularmotion relative to liquid water.
when ice forms, the hydrogen bond in the water molecule becomesnonpolar; ice behaves like oil.
